International Affairs: An Active Project

The Cellars Hill Wind Farm is a major renewable energy project in Tasmania, Australia, declared a major project by the Tasmanian Liberal Government. The project is a $1.5 billion wind farm expected to generate up to 238 jobs while it is being built and 14 permanent jobs while running (Kate,2025). The project is aligned with Tasmania’s wider agenda for strengthening its renewable energy capacity and reaching a 200 percent renewable energy target by 2040. The wind farm will be evaluated under the government’s new application, the fast-track approval process for large-scale renewable developments, and as part of the government’s renewing energy agenda to fast-track the move toward clean energy: International Affairs: An Active Project.

Internal and External Stakeholders Affected by the Process

The Tasmanian Government, which oversees the legislation and approval process, the project management team, and the Tasmanian Planning Commission, which will oversee the project’s construction, are the internal stakeholders affected by the process. External stakeholders impacted by the process include local communities in Bothwell and surrounding communities during construction, with job opportunities and potential disruption. Renewable energy advocates and environmental groups play another important dimension since they could favor the project’s objective to increase renewable energy capacity while ensuring this activity will have minimal possible environmental impact.

Internal and External Stakeholders Affected by the Results

Internal stakeholders affected by the results are landowners such as multi-generational farmers who will receive energy subsidies and long-term collaboration with the facility, as well as investors and financial institutions that will enable their financial benefit and success on the project. Other external stakeholders affected by the results include the local community, which will profit from job creation due to construction and operation, and energy consumers, who will benefit from a greater renewable energy supply. A $ 1,000-a-year energy subsidy will be given to the surrounding community to help local well-being (Times, 2025). The project will enhance Tasmania’s position as a leading renewable energy power hub and help bring further green technologies and investment to the state.
